Bioavailability is a crucial factor in the effectiveness of any dietary supplement, including Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN). It refers to the proportion of a substance that enters the circulation when introduced into the body and is thus able to have an active effect. In the case of NMN, bioavailability determines how much of the compound reaches the bloodstream and subsequently contributes to NAD+ biosynthesis. | [[Bioavailability]] is a crucial factor in the effectiveness of any dietary supplement, including Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN).

One of the main challenges with NMN bioavailability is its absorption and transportation within the body. When taken orally, NMN needs to be absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract, which can present barriers to its effective uptake. | One of the main challenges with NMN bioavailability is its absorption and transportation within the body.
